About Us – Snowbiz

Welcome to Snowbiz, your friendly spot for ski and snowboard rentals right in the heart of Queenstown. We're located in the Station Building on Duke Street, in the CBD next to the NZSki Snow Centre. It's easy to find us – there's parking out front, and ski buses to Coronet Peak and The Remarkables leave right from our door.

A Bit About Our Story

Snowbiz started back in 2003 with a simple goal: to help people get out on the slopes with reliable gear and great service. The founder has been part of the ski industry since 1986, and a love for the snow began on a school trip from Southland to Queenstown's mountains. Queenstown has always felt like the best place to be – with its amazing peaks and vibrant village atmosphere.

We've had some memorable adventures along the way, from skiing deep powder in Kashmir to enjoying the resorts and après-ski in the Austrian Alps.

Why Rent With Us?

We know a day on the mountain is all about fun and adventure, whether you're just starting out or have years of experience. Here's what we focus on:

  • Well-Maintained Gear: All skis and snowboards are sharpened, waxed, and tuned in our on-site workshop before each rental.
  • Great Fit: We use modern tools like the Boot Doc 3D foot scanner and the latest rental software to help get your boots and equipment feeling just right.
  • Convenient Options: Multi-day deals, lift pass packages, clothing rentals, and more to make things easier and save you money.
  • Helpful Team: Our staff are knowledgeable and ready to assist, so you can get set up quickly and head to the slopes.

We regularly update our fleet with quality models from top brands and work hard to keep everything running smoothly. Stop by, say hello, and let's help make your time in Queenstown's snow even better.

"Great service, very efficient and gear worked well".
